Linux

Manjaro: someone diarize the fucking SSL renewal date, please.

The distro itself? Idk I usually just write an ansible playbook to get everything to my liking. Run it once on a new install and everything is good.

I wish Debian had better support for software that wants to do its own package management.

They do it a little bit with python, but for most things it's either "stay within the wonderful Debian package management but then find out that the node thing you want to do is functionally impossible" or "abandon apt for a mismashed patchwork of randomly-placed and haphazardly-secured independently downloaded little mini-repos for Node, python, maybe some Docker containers, Composer, snap, some stuff that wants you to just wget a shell script and pipe it to sudo sh, and God help you, Nvidia drivers. At least libc6 is secure though."

I wish that there was a big multiarch-style push to acknowledge that lots of things want to do their own little package management now, and that's okay, and somehow bring it into the fold (again their pyenv handling seems like a pretty good example of how it can be done in a mutually-working way) so it's harmonious with the packaging system instead of existing as something of an opponent to it. Maybe this already exists and I'm not aware of it but if it exists I'm not aware of it.

For me Fedora only needs to speed up the dnf and update the installer.

more packages; open suse tumbleweed

For Alpine Linux:

• support a different process supervisor
  • dinit, or
  • s6 with some high level sugar
• add something like the AUR

Every distro with gnome.

Make RDP work as well as it does on Windows.

I'm talking about remoting into the Linux system.

Everytime the system is restarted you have to physically login to the system to unlock the keyring so that your RDP password is accessible or you won't be able to get in. Or you have to remove your keyring password all together. Why is this different than the regular user password?

Also it's weird that it works like VNC where you are controlling the system remotely but anyone local can see what you are doing on the screen. It is also cool to have that option but it shouldn't be the default.

Debian, include /sbin and /usr/sbin in PATH by default.

I'd like Gentoo ebuilds to run in a fully isolated namespace/container with only the dependencies explicitly enabled by portage configuration. Something like a mix of nix but with the ebuild syntax.

Fedora user here. A great improvement would simply be shipping unmodified (non "freeworld") versions of mesa packages in the official repositories, so you don't have to install them from rpmfusion, as they are often a few days behind with their mesa package upgrades, which leads to conflicts/issues in the dnf update process.

My favorite distro doesn't have the ressources, so i would have the big distros create an alternative to elogind, maybe help on turnstile for this.

I would like Debian and the fsf to come to some kind of agreement so Debian can ship the emacs documentation.

I wish for a default freeworld fedora.

Alpine linux but with layers just like Fedora Silverblue

Release Cosmic DE Alpha…can’t wait!
